Cant update no mirrors


I ahve just reinstalled mandrake 10 onto a PC for my daughter but I am unable to update it has it say it can't find any mirrors. Now I am guessing this has something to do with the change of company name?? can anyone tell me what the mirros are now and where I enter the information please

Go to easyurpmi and setup the main, contrib, plf and updates repositories. Once thats done, use rpmdrake to install updates or just enter the ommands below as root in a termianl emulator like konsole,
Code:
#urpmi --auto-select
To make sure that your sources are up to date, you need to run the command below once in a while,
Code:
#urpmi --update -a
You can also use rpmdrake to do the same thing.
